Chapter 199 Breaking 10 Billion

"Don't be angry, they will all be punished." Xu Qingling gently placed her hand on Qin Jun's shoulder and comforted him.

Then Qin Yun saw what happened to the couple.

Zhang Yanhong later had an affair, and even the child she gave birth to was not Zhou Chubing's.

In a fit of rage, Zhou Chubing killed Zhang Yanhong and the child, then fled.

Of course, Zhou Chubing, who had escaped, was later captured and executed.

Moreover, this couple will also be punished in the underworld.

The crimson in Qin Jun's eyes gradually faded, and the anger in her heart finally dissipated.

"Thank you, Director Xu."

"Now that you have received your child, go and be reborn."

"Given that you have been doing good deeds in the underworld for the past twenty-odd years, you are allowed to continue your mother-son relationship with Bobo in the next life."

Qin Jun and Bobo were overjoyed and thanked Xu Qingling again.

After arranging the triplets' wishes, Xu Qingling continued to review other requests for leave.

By the time they were remembered again, the three ghosts had become famous.

That was six months later.

Zhang Zhaolai invited Xu Qingling to see the premiere of his movie "The Romance of the Republic of China".

Xu Qingling took Sasha with her.

Because it's a horror movie, not many people watch it.

but……

After two hours, Xu Qingling nodded, saying that her performance was quite good and could be considered a natural portrayal.

Later, this film became nothing short of a miracle.

On the first day, the box office was less than a million, which can only be described as dismal.

But those who saw it continued to give it positive reviews and recommended it to their friends and family.

On the second and third days, although the box office increased, it was still not even a fraction of the box office of other films released at the same time.

But afterwards, the box office revenue increased day by day, even showing a parabolic upward trend.

Later, it surpassed the box office of the same period.

Especially after a month later, the film won four awards at the Golden Forest Awards: Best Director, Best Screenplay, Best Actor, and Best Special Effects, which immediately ignited the whole country.

As a result, countless viewers across the country flocked to cinemas to watch it.

Major cinemas quickly increased the screening rate of the film "The Romance of the Republic of China".

As more and more people watched it, the film trended on social media multiple times, sparking countless comments from netizens.

To be honest, this is the best horror movie I've seen in the last 10 years.

[It's not exactly terrifying; it reflects the tragic reality of that era while also conveying a patriotic tone, which is quite good.]

The male lead's acting is truly superb, and his singing is exceptional. As someone who majored in traditional opera, I think even my teacher's singing skills can't compare to his.

I heard that was sung by the male lead himself, without any dubbing.

The scene where the male lead turns into a ghost later on is also amazing. Was that special effects? It looks so real; honestly, if you didn't know better, you'd think the male lead really did turn into a ghost.

Director Feng's camera work is also excellent.

By the way, was the filming location Zhuangmeng Garden in Nanjing? I know this place; it's been passed down from the Republic of China era and is said to be haunted.

[There shouldn't be any ghosts, otherwise how could Director Feng have filmed this movie smoothly?]

[Go and see, it seems Zhuang Mengyuan is open!]

Yes, Zhuangmengyuan has been opened to the public after the application process.

Previously, Zhuang Mengyuan was rumored to be haunted, but that's no longer the case. Now, the ownership of Zhuang Mengyuan belongs to the Jinling City government. After learning that Zhuang Mengyuan was no longer haunted, the authorities quickly rectified the situation and, taking advantage of the popularity of the TV series "A Romance in the Republican Era," reopened it.

As a result, countless people from all over the country who had seen the film flocked to Zhuangmengyuan.

It is foreseeable that Zhuangmengyuan will generate substantial tourism revenue for Nanjing City in the coming years.

The film "The Romance of the Republic of China" was shown in theaters for three months from its initial release until it was taken off the screens.

And it generated 101 billion in box office revenue!
It's not just the highest-grossing horror film, but the highest-grossing film of all time.

Moreover, although this film has been taken off the screens in theaters, it will later be available on major video websites.

At that time, it could also generate a considerable income.

When Feng Chengfeng saw the 10 billion yuan box office figure, he was so moved that he burst into tears on the spot.

Think back to the beginning, no company was optimistic about it, no one was willing to invest, and no famous actors were willing to star in it.

Unfortunately, he had no choice but to find new actors.

But the new actor also ran away after filming for a few days.

Feng Chengfeng insisted on making this film because of his own conviction; he never expected it to be such a huge success.

But he knew he had two people to thank.

One was Hao Lai, who invested in him, and the other was Zhang Zhao.

After this film, Feng Chengfeng once again became a sought-after director.

Previously, when people heard that he was going to make a ghost movie, they were unwilling to invest. But now, they are all holding scripts and money, begging Director Feng to continue making ghost movies.

Of course, the newcomer who dropped out of the role was kicking himself.

Not only did the film become a hit, but the male lead Zhang Zhao and other supporting actors also became famous.

He thought, if he hadn't given up acting back then, wouldn't he have become an overnight sensation?
Unfortunately, it was too late for him to regret it.

Of course, everyone thinks that the luckiest person was Hao Lai from Laifu Film and Television Entertainment.

Hao Lai also felt that she was very lucky.

He initially invested 20 million yuan simply to curry favor with Bian Dong and Xu Qingling, and for the sake of connections.

Twenty million is neither a lot nor a little for him.

But Hao Lai felt it was worth it!
Even if this movie flops, it's okay.

That's right. From the very beginning, Hao Lai wasn't very optimistic about this film. Even though he vaguely knew Zhang Zhao's identity, he didn't think it would be a hit.

When the film was released and he saw the box office figures for the first day, he had a feeling that he had expected this.

Unexpectedly, the film became a huge hit and won numerous awards.

Not only that, but the box office eventually exceeded 10 billion!

This result shocked Hao Lai!

Besides Feng Chengfeng, no one else invested in this film.

However, even if he invested in all of it, he wouldn't be able to collect all of the 10 billion yuan in box office revenue.

But they received more than half of it, which is probably several billion.

Hao Lai: My film and entertainment company is only worth tens of billions.

That's like making half the company's profit!
Everyone in the entertainment industry who knows Hao Lai congratulated him, saying that he really has a good eye for investment and seized this dark horse film. They also asked him what he wanted to invest in next, so they could follow suit.

Hao Lai said, "I don't have any investment acumen. At first, I thought this movie would flop!"
However, Hao Lai would certainly not say that when asked by others.

"Haha, yes, I knew this movie would be a hit!"

Feng Chengfeng knew that Zhang Zhao deserved half the credit for the success of this ghost film, so he planned to continue making ghost films, with Zhang Zhao playing the male lead again.
